I've always
stood up against
that which didn't feel right...

Even if that standing strong
caused me to be knocked out,
my ribs broken and I lost the fight...

I've never been afraid of the dark
of night. But, instead feared the light
of day, which starkly exposes the shadows
of blighted souls, often leaving me
me running scared inside,
blood coldly flowing
to the congealing
point...

The piss and vinegar woman in me
wants to curl up in a ball like an abused little girl, today...
Wishing like a fool, I could make it all go away
by closing my eyes and pretending monsters
don't exist, when I know
full well they do...

Often arriving,
in human form...

The fear only makes us stronger. and with words like these those who have gone through the same circumstances can know they aren't alone. So I applaud you for that Sabrina! and another applause for the just outstanding writing. ~ Troy

anirbas: Artolmaeus, glad you are glad for this thing that is ongoing, if neglected, by David and me. I plan to try to be here, at least, a bit more. I am just so tired after work, I don't even feel like writing, for years, now. Sigh. Old sad assed, Nir. LoL Oct 16, 2023 22:41:18 GMT -6

anirbas: Yes, we survived the rapture and the apocalypse! I really, really wanted to buy several blow up dolls, fill them with helium and release them, that day. That would have been so fun and funny!!! Alas, need our money to feather our new nest. Apr 18, 2024 20:12:49 GMT -6
